Kimmax111067yShould enable the crowd sourced translations, like the subtitles on yt. I wouldn't mind translating a short description here and there. Would be better than 90% of that what google translate summons

Google needs to understand that a lot of people understand English even though it's not their first language.

CptFox16197y@Kimmax that's actually a great idea. Although some moderators may be needed to ensure competition doesn't actively mistranslate other's apps, as that could become a bothersome thing too
-
Kimmax111067y@CptFox sure, but there can be a validation system like youtubes. And if you have to worry about your competitors so much that they would fake your translation you are big enough to hire a professional to do it properly for you

joas19427yYeah, complitely agree about Google Play's description translations being annoying. I was just yesterday thinking about it. I'll try to make Xposed module to fix that. Will see how that goes.

joas19427y@demiko No, I refuse to change system language. But hey I found the View to change so half way there.

Please Google, allow us to disable that retarded Google translate thing you've got going on the play store.
Seriously, 90% of the apps' short description are absolutely unreadable because they insist on translating it to my device's language even if no translating is available.
I know it's probably useful to some people (the ones who don't understand English but somehow understand the human language equivalent of spaghetti-code, which I suspect is not many), but this needs to be disable-able, it makes the experience of discovering apps extremely awkward.
